In the evening, the mother and wife of Mr. [Gholamreza] Javadi, [Deputy of the Office of the Chairman of the Expediency Council] came to ask for help. I said I was informed by the court that the arrest order will be changed soon.

Mr. [Ahmad] Ahmadi, a member of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution, came. He expressed concern about the spreading of the ideas of Mr. [Abdul Karim] Soroush and [Mohammed] Mojtahid Shabastri. He presented examples of Mr. Soroush's writings in which there was a wrong understanding of God, religion, revelation, jurists, etc., and asked me to think.

In addition, he criticized Mr. [Syed Mohammad] Khatami's cultural policies, which gave rise to such deviations. He also criticized the insolence of Hami Dom Khordad's forces, who took away the fruits of my construction in the opening of new projects and use of industrial products, without expressing appreciation for the era of construction, and on the contrary, we see negative advertisements against construction in Salam newspaper.

I had a telephone conversation with Mr. [Syed Mohammad] Khatami, [President], about the university incidents.

Natiq [Nouri] and [Ahmed] Jannati and the judiciary and Naja. They supported Mr. Khatami, but the slogan was "Khatami, power or resignation".

The bodyguards reported that the voice of Allah Akbar came from the students' dormitory in Jamaran. [Mr. Mustafa Moin], the Minister of Science, has resigned in support of them.

The reports that appeared on my computer screen at eleven o'clock at night say that the demonstrators went to Tehran University, where the statement of the Secretariat of the Supreme National Security Council was read to them, but they did not accept it and chanted that Mr. Lotfian, the commander of Naja, should be dismissed. to be tried and they have announced that they will continue their sit-in tomorrow until their demands are met.

Ansar Hizbollah has also announced that it was not present in the attack on the university well, but Mr. Khatami told me that they saw [Masoud] Dehnamki and his associates there.
